Definitions

  • Vehicles with electrical drive comprise an accumulator to feed the drive.
  • a charging socket is provided at many vehicles in order to transmit energy from outside into the accumulator, which is to say a charging procedure, or also to feed the energy back into a supply grid.
  • Charging stations which in simple terms can be referred to as alternating voltage sources, exist for this purpose.
  • the number of phases of this alternating voltage source differs depending on the connection to the mains grid or also according to the configuration of the mains grid.
  • An object of the invention is to indicate a possibility by means of which different charging points, with different numbers of phases, can be used with little complexity in the vehicle.
  • an alternating voltage charging system for single- and multi-phase charging comprises a DC link capacitor which in either setting is overdimensioned in one respect: in the case of single-phase charging, only a comparatively small voltage (corresponding to the lower chaining factor) requiring smoothing occurs (in comparison with multi-phase charging), while the capacitor must nevertheless have a rated voltage that is appropriate for the multi-phase charging, since one and the same capacitor is usually used in the intermediate circuit. In the case of multi-phase charging, only a comparatively low voltage ripple occurs, while the capacitor must nevertheless have a capacitance that is appropriate for the single-phase charging with increased voltage ripple if, as is usual, one and the same DC link capacitor is used.
  • multiple DC link capacitors are used with an alternating current charging device that is provided for single- and multi-phase charging, wherein said capacitors are connected in parallel for single-phase charging in order in that way to achieve a high capacitance (wherein the low voltage rating is less critical in the case of single-phase charging, and can be accepted).
  • the DC link capacitors are connected in series for multi-phase charging, in order in that way to achieve a high voltage rating, since the voltage to be smoothed is distributed in the series circuit over the DC link capacitors (wherein the low capacitance of the series circuit is less critical with multi-phase charging, and can be accepted).
  • the DC link capacitors are thus utilized optimally in each of the said charging types; there is no overdimensioning in terms of capacitance or of voltage rating.
  • the alternating voltage charging device for a vehicle (in particular a vehicle that is chargeable from the outside, i.e. a plug-in vehicle) is therefore described.
  • the alternating voltage charging device is preferably a vehicle-side alternating voltage charging device.
  • the charging device comprises: a rectifier, an accumulator terminal and at least two DC link capacitors.
  • a component that is configured to exercise the function as a rectifier is described as the rectifier. This can be the only function of the component, but can also be one of a plurality of functions. If, for example, the rectifier is bidirectional, then it is configured for the functions of rectifying and inverting.
  • the accumulator terminal serves to connect an accumulator, preferably a high-voltage accumulator.
  • a vehicle electrical system with a charging device as described here can be provided which furthermore comprises an accumulator that is connected to the accumulator terminal.
  • the accumulator terminal usually comprises (at least) two contacts, in particular a positive contact and a negative contact.
  • the DC link capacitors can each be formed of one capacitor element, but are preferably designed as a plurality of capacitor elements connected in parallel that may be mounted on a carrier and connected together. Each of the DC link capacitors can, in other words, be realized as a capacitor bank.
  • the charging device thus comprises a first DC link capacitor. This is configured to smooth the pulsating DC voltage that arises at the rectifier.
  • This first DC link capacitor is provided between the rectifier and the accumulator terminal, in particular connected in parallel, perhaps to a busbar between the rectifier and the accumulator terminal.
  • a switch device is provided to select whether the DC link capacitors are connected in parallel or in series.
  • the charging device comprises such a switch device.
  • the switch device connects the at least one second DC link capacitor to the at least one first DC link capacitor, in particular connected selectively in parallel or in series.
  • the switch device is configured to connect the DC link capacitors (i.e. the at least one first and the at least one second DC link capacitor) in parallel in a first switch state.
  • the switch device is configured to connect the DC link capacitors to one another in series in a second switch state.
  • the switch device can be realized by means of electromechanical switches or by means of semiconductor switches such as transistors, for example MOSFETs or IGBTs.
  • a series switch can be connected in series between the capacitors which, when it is closed (i.e. in the second switch state), connects the capacitors in series.
  • the capacitors each comprise a first and a second electrode.
  • the first electrode of the first capacitor can be connected permanently to a first potential of the DC voltage side of the rectifier, for example with the positive potential.
  • the first electrode of the second capacitor can be connected permanently to a second potential of the DC voltage side of the rectifier, for example with the negative potential.
  • the series switch connects the second electrodes (i.e. the inner electrodes) to one another (in a switchable manner).
  • a first parallel switch switch ably connects—and preferably in the first switch state—the second electrode of the first capacitor to the second potential, in particular the negative potential.
  • a second parallel switch switch ably connects—and preferably in the first switch state—the second electrode of the second capacitor to the first potential, for example a supply potential.
  • the series switch on the one hand and the parallel switches on the other hand are closed in alternation (and in particular also opened in alternation).
  • a controller that is connected in a controlling manner to the switches can be provided, and is configured to close and to open the switches in alternation in the illustrated manner. Only when the series switch is driven open (i.e. in the first switch state) are the parallel switches in the closed state, corresponding to the first switch state. Only when the parallel switches are driven open (i.e. in the second switch state) is the series switch in the closed state, corresponding to the second switch state.
  • the controller is configured to drive the switches accordingly.
  • the second potential can be a reference potential, for example ground, or can correspond to the negative potential of the device.
  • the first potential can be a supply potential, for example the positive potential of the device.
  • the charging device and, in particular, the rectifier is designed for single-phase charging (“single-phase mode”, corresponding to the first switch state) and for multi-phase charging (“multi-phase mode”, corresponding to the second switch state). It is preferably provided that the modes are only active in alternation, not simultaneously.
  • the switch device is configured to adopt the first switch state during a single-phase charging process (corresponding to a parallel connection of the capacitors), and to adopt the second switch state during a multi-phase charging process (corresponding to a series connection of the capacitors).
  • the rectifier preferably comprises an alternating voltage side. This is connected to a plurality of phase terminals.
  • the phase terminals are, for example, configured for single-phase charging and multi-phase charging.
  • the alternating voltage side is alternatively connected to a multi-phase terminal as well as to a single-phase terminal.
  • the terminals are then arranged in parallel with one another from the electrical point of view.
  • the rectifier can be a passive rectifier.
  • the rectifier can, furthermore, be an active rectifier.
  • the rectifier can in addition be a bidirectional rectifier.
  • the rectifier can be an inverter that is configured, in a rectifier mode, to rectify selectively in a single- or multi-phase manner, and, in an inverter mode, to convert DC voltage into single- or multi-phase alternating voltage in the opposite direction.
  • Components that are configured to exercise the function of rectification are thus referred to as rectifiers.
  • This can, however, be one of a plurality of functions.
  • As an active rectifier this comprises switches that can be controlled from outside, such as semiconductor switches such as transistors, for example MOSFETs or IGBTs. This is also true for the configuration as an inverter.
  • a passive rectifier this comprises diodes as switches.
  • the rectifier is designed as an inverter.
  • the inverter is connected to an electric machine (as part of the device), or comprises machine phase terminals for connection to an electric machine. It can be provided that the electric machine connects the inverter to the charging terminal.
  • the charging current path also passes here through the windings of the electric machine (or at least one of them), in order to enable a filtering effect or voltage conversion (in addition to the rectification).
  • the rectifier is also designed as an inverter. This is connected selectively through a selection switch either to the charging terminal or to an electric machine, or to machine phase terminals for connection to an electric machine.
  • the charging current path does not in this case pass through the electric machine.
  • At least a first and/or the at least one second DC link capacitor is designed as a plurality of capacitor elements connected in parallel.
  • the installation space can thereby be more flexibly designed.
  • At least one supplementary smoothing capacitor connected to the DC side of the rectifier in parallel (and in particular not switchable or configurable) can be provided.
  • the DC voltage converter or its DC voltage side, can be connected directly (i.e. without any voltage-converting elements) to the accumulator terminal.
  • a DC voltage converter can alternatively be provided between the DC link capacitors and the accumulator terminal.
  • a DC voltage converter or another component with a DC voltage side, can be provided, which is connected, as described here, to the DC link capacitors, for example a DC voltage converter, that has a side at which, when operating, a pulsating (for example a chopped and/or pulse-width modulated) DC voltage appears that is smoothed by means of the DC link capacitors.
  • the device can be provided for general tasks, and is not limited to a charging device; in particular, the device can be a converter or a current converter.
  • the device described here is preferably associated with a vehicle, or employed in a vehicle electrical system, but can also be provided in a stationary device, for example in a charging station or in a (mobile) charging unit external to the vehicle.
  • a vehicle electrical system or a charging station
  • a charging station can be provided that is fitted with a device as described here.
  • a method for the single- or multi-phase alternating current charging of a vehicle is also described.
  • the purpose of the method is to rectify an alternating charging voltage.
  • the rectified charging voltage is smoothed or supported by means of a first and a second DC link capacitor. If a multi-phase alternating charging voltage is rectified, the rectified charging voltage is smoothed by means of a series interconnection of the DC link capacitors. If a single-phase alternating charging voltage is rectified, the rectified charging voltage is to be smoothed by means of a parallel interconnection of the DC link capacitors (i.e. the same DC link capacitors).
  • the identical DC link capacitors are used in both cases, although in different configurations (i.e. connected in parallel or in series).
  • a determination as to whether a single-phase alternating charging voltage or multi-phase alternating charging voltage is present at a charging terminal is made before the smoothing. If a multi-phase alternating charging voltage is present, the DC link capacitors are connected in series (corresponding to the second switch setting). If a single-phase alternating charging voltage is present, the DC link capacitors are connected in parallel (corresponding to the first switch setting).
  • the smoothing is preferably performed by means of the DC link capacitors after the DC link capacitors have been connected.
  • the connection can also be referred to as configuration. The connection is preferably carried out by means of the switch device.
  • the determination can be provided by a controller that is in particular connected in a controlling manner to the said switches of the device.
  • a higher-level control unit can, furthermore, perform the determination and transmit a relevant configuration signal to the controller that is connected in a controlling manner with the switch device.
  • An occupancy sensor, a voltage sensor, a frequency ascertainment unit or a signal input interface (preferably wireless) that are connected to an input of the controller or of the higher-level control unit can be provided. If the occupancy sensor or the voltage sensor only ascertains one or two occupied contacts carrying a potential at the alternating voltage side of the rectifier, at the phase terminals (including a neutral line) or (an occupancy) at the single-phase terminal, then single-phase charging is to be assumed, corresponding to the first switch state.
  • the occupancy sensor or the voltage sensor ascertains more occupied contacts carrying a potential at the alternating voltage side of the rectifier (corresponding to phases of a three-phase grid), at the phase terminals or (an occupancy) at the multi-phase terminal, then multi-phase charging is to be assumed, corresponding to the second switch state.
  • the frequency ascertainment unit ascertains a frequency of 60 Hz, corresponding to the frequency in a US supply grid, then single-phase charging is to be assumed. If the frequency ascertainment unit ascertains a frequency of 50 Hz and a multi-phase occupancy, then multi-phase charging is to be assumed.
  • the signal input interface can be configured to receive a signal that explicitly or inherently identifies the charging type (i.e. single-phase or multi-phase), so that the switch setting is chosen depending on this charging type.
  • the charging device is configured to carry out the method.
